Sentient Wonders
System
Sentient Wonders – singing swords, AI computers, English-accented power-suit guidance systems, and so forth – could, with the Storyteller’s permission, be purchased with a Background like Ally, Familiar, Mentor or Retainer. In this case, the character is the Wonder and the Wonder is the character.
Like any other character, of course, a sentient Wonder will have its own personality, desires, agendas and needs… characteristics that the “owner” might not share. Perf’s homi cidal relationship with the Sword of Fighting in the webseries JourneyQuest shows just how obnoxious such bonds can become.
